Duvelisib plus venetoclax for relapsed PTCL
This study tests two oral drugs—duvelisib and venetoclax—to see if together they can help people with a type of lymphoma called peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) that has not responded to at least two prior treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06810791RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing Chemotherapy Combos for High-Risk AML
This trial compares three chemotherapy combinations (HVA vs IA/DA or VA) for people with newly diagnosed high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It aims to find which treatment works better.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06810804RecruitingPhase 2
Study of NBQ72S for breast cancer that has spread to the brain lining
This trial tests a new drug, NBQ72S, for people with breast cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord (leptomeningeal metastasis). It aims to see if the drug is safe and helpful for these patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06811233RecruitingPhase 2
Metal detox during AML treatment
This trial tests whether monitoring and rebalancing metals in the body can help improve treatment for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or related conditions. It's for patients who are getting their first or second round of therapy and aren't yet in remission.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06811844RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of chemotherapy combined with an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer that hasn't spread to distant organs. The goal is to see if this approach works well while reducing treatment side effects.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–65 - NCT06811870RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Hyperbaric oxygen before surgery for breast cancer
This trial tests adding hyperbaric oxygen (breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber) before standard chemotherapy for breast cancer. The goal is to see if it helps shrink the tumor more effectively before surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–60 - NCT06812715RecruitingPhase 2
Pirtobrutinib after zanubrutinib for chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This trial tests a new drug, pirtobrutinib, for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have already been treated with zanubrutinib (a similar BTK inhibitor). The goal is to see if switching to pirtobrutinib can help control the disease.
